In any case, at least Li Xin and Ye Ming reached a preliminary intention, and the two began to discuss little by little how to write a detailed recital to the imperial court.

In this process, the little grandfather Ye Mao was ruthlessly driven out, leaving only the two brothers, one is the general manager of the expedition to the west, and the other is the deputy general of the expedition.

Start from the broken Han and discuss it little by little.

The number of casualties, the process of breaking the city, and all kinds of other details, both people must be ventilated and have a unified voice.

This is not for fear that the court will ask for any flaws, but for the purpose of distributing benefits.

Military merits, who to give military merits, and how to divide them, must be discussed, so as not to have conflicts between the two people after returning to the capital.

In fact, this was originally the work of the main general alone, as long as there is no problem with the general direction, generally speaking, what the main general says, and others have no part to intervene, and Ye Ming is willing to pull Li Xin along, on the one hand, because Li Xin's meritorious service is too heavy, and the two of them are divided into troops, and many places have to discuss with Li Xin.

On the other hand, it is to give Li Xin face, in order to maintain the relationship between the Ye family and Li Xin.

The two senior brothers waited until late at night, when Li Xin got up and left, and smiled at Ye Ming: "Senior brother, these are not something that can be sorted out in a day or two, early tomorrow morning, the junior brother will come to see the senior brother again, and he will definitely sort out a recital that can be submitted to the imperial court." ”

Ye Ming also stood up and sent Li Xin to the door, he pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said in a deep voice: "Along the way, the dog has grown up a lot, thank you Chang'an for your careful teaching." ”

Li Xin shook his head and said: "The younger brother and Ye Mao are the same age, and they are a few years younger than him, so they can only learn from each other along the way, and they can't talk about teaching." ”

Hearing Li Xin say this, Ye Ming suddenly discovered that the Marquis of Jing'an in front of him was just a young man who had just turned twenty.

Because of his conversation and style of doing things, he has subconsciously always regarded Li Xin as a peer.

This General Ye sighed and sighed: "If Ye Mao can have three or four points of Chang'an, he can rest assured that he can close his eyes for his brother now." ”

Li Xin waved his hand again and again.

"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense, Master Ye is still alive and kicking in his seventies, even if Senior Brother only lives at Master Ye's age, he still has at least more than twenty years to live, don't say such heavy words."

Ye Ming shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I know my own body, I may not be able to live as long as my father, maybe I have to ask his old man to send me ......."

He is in his fifties this year, and there are many people who leave in their forties in this era, and it is even more common for them to die in their fifties.

Life is rare for seventy years.

Speaking of this, General Ye shook his head.

"That's it, don't talk about this, it's not early, Chang'an, you go back and rest."

"Tomorrow, we'll continue to discuss these trivial matters."

Li Xin nodded and turned to leave.

Ye Ming watched him leave, seeing Li Xin's background stunned, he didn't know what he was thinking.

It was a long time before he let out a long sigh.

"The young man is proud, Mu Xiu is in the forest, but he is not arrogant or impatient, and he advances and retreats properly, he is a rare character, but it's a pity that you grow too fast, no matter how much you want to be short, you can't hide yourself."

"What happens in the future depends on whether you can turn evil into good fortune."

Speaking of this, General Ye shook his head and turned around and went back to his residence.

"I hope you can go farther, so that Mao'er can be regarded as having an elder who can support him."

…………………………

Soon, five or six days had passed since Ye Ming arrived in Jincheng.

In the past five or six days, he and Li Xin have basically sorted out the details of this western expedition, when it comes to breaking Jincheng, Ye Ming put forward a lot of unreasonable points, such as the number of casualties in the Pingnan Army is not quite consistent with the news they got before, but they were all pushed by Li Xin on the head of the Hanzhou Righteous Army, although Ye Ming felt that something was not quite right, but in the end, it was still on Li Xin's face and did not say anything.

As for Li Shen, Ye Ming took the time to see Li Shen once in the past few days, and the two generals also sat together and had a drink, and after drinking, General Ye said a word to Li Shen with some emotion.

"The tiger son of the Li family, it's a pity that he didn't grow up in the nest and became a biao."

Tigers generally only raise one or two cubs in a litter, and legend has it that if three are born, the tigress will abandon one of them, and this abandoned tiger cub is Biao.

This type of biao is thinner and smaller, it is difficult to grow up, and most of them will die in the wild.

But once it grows up, it becomes the most ferocious beast of prey, and it returns to its nest and bites the tigress and her two siblings to death.

Li Xin's experience is indeed a bit like the legendary "Biao", but he is not completely Li Xin, so he is not so angry, and what he has done in the past few years is only as good as he wants.

At that time, after hearing Ye Ming's words, General Zhu Guo smiled.

"If he had grown up in the lair, he wouldn't be where he is today."

This concludes the conversation between the two generals.

After another three or four days, the time came to the middle of April in the third year of Taikang, and the weather gradually became hot and dry, and it was already almost summer.

A fair-skinned young man dressed in ordinary cloth and under the protection of twenty or thirty plainclothes men, he quickly arrived at the foot of Jincheng City.

After arriving at the gate of Jincheng City, this young man first glanced up at the banner of Jincheng, and confirmed that it was the forbidden army that occupied Jincheng, he breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and took out the imperial court seal, wanting to see General Ye and the Marquis of Jing'an,

The identity of this young man is obviously not simple, after the seal letter was lit, the forbidden army guarding the city quickly entered the city to report the news, and after a while, someone led him to the Pingnan General's Mansion.

At this time, at the gate of General Pingnan's Mansion, Ye Ming and Li Xin were already waiting at the door, and after seeing this young man, the two Zhengxi generals glanced at each other and saluted this young man with fists.

"Ye Ming has seen Gonggong Xiao."

"Li Xin has seen the little father-in-law."

The person who came was the person next to him today, Xiao Zheng, the young eunuch who followed the palace from the Wei Palace.

Now, the titular eunuch Chen Ju is still guarding the tomb of the first emperor in Zhaoling, and he has not entered the capital for two or three years.

This kind of boss of the inner court can theoretically be seen at the level of the official, so whether it is Ye Ming or Li Xin, they all express their respect.

Xiao Zheng hurriedly got off the horse, because the fast horse came from the capital, this young man who had not traveled a "long distance" was swinging his legs, he reluctantly walked to Li Xin and Ye Ming, and his face turned a little pale.

"Two generals, don't torture the slaves!"

He shook the light at the two of them.

"If Your Majesty knows that the two generals salute the slave maid, the slave and maid will have to die in Weiyang Palace when they return to the capital!"
